I was given statins over 15 years ago for high cholesterol. When I moved house I had a new Dr. who took me off them without explanation. Then last year I developed T2. People are so different.Research is so expensive but obviously there is not enough done to prove one thing or another. So it is...

Tophat Congratulations. :cat:With all that lot you deserve a good Xmas

I changed to crisp bread instead. They are very low on calories. (27 each) You can fill them with all sorts of goodies, Cheese, egg, slices of meat, avocado, tuna, salmon, and much much more. I have them almost every day Tesco sell them as "Tesco Thin Crispbread", in a yellow box. Similar...

Welcome Essexgary The lack of action by your medical team says Type 2. You already know about essential weight loss. You are well on the way to control. Food is the key and testing will keep you on the straight and narrow. Exercise will greatly help your weight loss (if you can). Just walking...

Very well done.:)

I'm with you. As you can see I am a bit old. But loosing a few pounds will not harm you. You may have to tighten your belt a bit. Do try the Low Carb diet. About which there is much on this site. There are lots of new foods you should find to replace the Pots,rice, pasta, and bread, etc. can be...

I was taking two metformin daily. The medic stopped the metformin at my last review. Since them I have not lost any weight. Not that this matters as I am now within a good weight. I still do the exercise as previously. My next Hba1c & review I had yesterday but dont know the results yet as I am...

You will definitely need to make a record of the foods you consume for each meal and test before and 2 hours after each meal. This is not a hard chore once you get used to it, but it is essential that you find out what type of food gives the high readings. The foods high in carbs are wheat...

I'm with you 100%. I blame this site for my success so far in reducing my weight, my BG and my HbA1c. Stopped taking Metformin. New test results next week. Keeping my fingers crossed.:happy:

I have recently downloaded a 7Day LC diet from this site. Some good simple meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. All in colour. Worth a try.:happy:.

Have you considered an exercise routine. If you are able this can help balance the diet and fasting. Keep searching for answers.;)

The recommended action for T1 is available on this site. How could you have missed it. Don't drive if you are hypo, for your own sake, and others. But do look it up, it's well worth reading. Best of luck.:cat:
